Week of March 25 - 28

I hope everyone had a nice, restful weekend.  Did anyone see the magnificent sunrise this morning?  It made me happy!!  Did anyone go to PNHS to see the musical during the weekend?  I went to it and thought the students did a terrific job.  I hope this is a sign of more good things to come in the music/theater departments in the Plymouth schools.

This week is a 4 day week and grades close NEXT FRIDAY!  Make sure you are caught up and get in any missing assignments.  I will be after school this week on MONDAY.  If you need help on another day, see me and we can talk about making other arrangements.

BASIC ENGLISH:
On Monday, I will be proctoring MCAS, so you will be in the IMC working on some writing activities and a Scarlet Ibis word search.  We will be finishing up reading The Scarlet Ibis this week and doing a writing activity analyzing culpability (new word for you all!).

BASIC ALGEBRA:
I will be proctoring MCAS on Monday, so you will be in the IMC doing some review work on the distributive property.  I will spend the next three days doing more review work.  From what I saw last week, it seems like we need to do a little refresher on integers and basic equations.
Homework:
Tuesday:  Study Guide 2-3
Wednesday:  Study Guide 2-4 

STUDY SKILLS:
You did a great job last week getting your History essays started!  Let's keep up the good work.  Remember your agendas and any work you need help on.  It's a short week, so keep a positive attitude and work hard and we will all have a more pleasant G period!

Don't forget:
FIT CLUB meets on Tuesday and Thursday this week right after school in the wrestling gym.  Hope to see more of you there - pass the word along!

Have a great week!
